Surbiton Chess Club
History - club honours
Until the last 10-15 years we were a small club that was not competitive in the top divisions of the leagues in which we participated. That all changed in the 2018-2019 season, when by winning the Surrey Trophy, we completed the full set of winning the top honours in the two local leagues that we compete in.
Below is a record of our trophy wins from 1949 onwards. Please note that the Thames Valley league records of winners prior to 1980 are sketchy except for division 1 and so it is possible there is more to add to the list for the lower divisions.
The bracketed numbers or letters next to the dates indicate which of our teams won the trophy (1st, 2nd or A, B, etc.) where applicable.
